Randy's View

Good morning all, my cousin Randy Hungwell from the US is over on a couple of weeks on a working holiday. He is a sports reporter on The Washington Post and asked me if he could give his views on Saturdays game....

" It was a real nice 'Fall' like day as I was walking down the Uxbridge Boulevard to see the Queens Power Rangers soccer franchise. This was my first ever visit to the Lofthouse Roadhouse Soccerbowl, and the team looked swell in their new uniforms. The opponents for this CPL tie were the Sheffield Steelers. This was the Rangers first game after being relegationized from the EPL after spending the whole of last season in the EPL disaster sector.

It was the poolball cueball headed soccer striker Angry Johanson who made an early play to get on the scorers board with a hot strike that was deflected for a free ball corner after some good work by the Steelers deefense. But it was the Steelers who took the lead with a power strike from Nehru after nineteen minutes. Robson Green was as slow as a grizzly bear coming out of hibernation in getting down to make the hand denial stop.

Then just before the semi phase completion whistle, the surprise pick on the starting playing roster Joey Righton set up a goal strike. JR Hoilet fired the ball into the danger zone and Onoutah tied up the tie with his equalization shot from the six yard marker.
Then unbelievably two minutes later awesome Angry Johanson inserted the soccer ball into the Steelers goal for a 2-1 scorline in favor of the Rangers.

In the second period the Rangers just needed to score once more and it would've been ' Goodnight Vienetta ' for the Steelers. Instead they had to endure some 'squeaky ass time' as the Steelers were denied a twelve yard death strike by the judge. Joey Righton nearly became douchebag of the day as he looked to have committed a felony in the 18 yard zone and was lucky not to receive the major offense card. Steelers head coach Davy Jones was jumping up and down on the sideline like a Monkee after the head judges call and the Steelers fans howled like owls from the bleachers.

A 50 yard Hail Mary from Joey Righton reached wide-receiver JR Hoilet who twisted like a sidewinder past 3 Steelers before Kirkmann their goal stopper made the denial. It was only the appearance of Steve Austin who just signed in the franchise enhancement window that bought any further cheer in this soccer tie. He kicked the ball with his head but it sailed over the bar meaning that this tie finished 2-1 to the Power Rangers at the completion whistle to secure the victory points.

This was a fun tie to watch and I think the Rangers will at least make the ' Elevation face-off spots.'

All the best, Randy.
